Polycystic Ovaries Symptoms And Signs

Hello. Thanks a lot for dropping by. If you want to solve problem about polycystic ovaries syndrome, first things first, you should know what is meant by polycystic ovaries syndrome and then you should alert the most with the polycystic ovaries symptoms. This is important because some women were just ignoring the symptoms and think that, what they are experiencing are normal and nothing to be worry about. At last, they were suffering something that they themselves can’t believe what they are facing now.

Read on this article as it will describe some common symptoms experienced by almost all women who suffering polycystic ovaries syndrome. The common polycystic ovaries symptoms that will be discuss are infertility, acne and abnormal hair growth and (100) heavy periods or irregular frequent bleeding.

Let’s begin with irregular frequent bleeding. This symptom is more common in patients who are obese with PCOS.  Sometimes the little and primitive follicles turn out enough estrogen to thicken the liner of the uterus but the compacting and balancing hormone,  progesterone, is not present.  This will bring on the lining of the uterus becoming thicker and thicker and then encountering a kind of pre-cancerous change, maybe related to a heavy bleeding or irregular, frequent and even constant bleeding.  Patients with this kind of bleeding would like the research of the lining of the uterus by hysteroscopy and biopsy to make sure that they're not developing cancerous or pre-cancerous changes.

The next point polycystic ovaries symptoms of will be about acne and abnormal hair growth. Increasing levels of male hormone are produced by the ovary and to a lesser extent by any excess body fat.  These increased levels of male hormone disconcerting to receptors in the skin and may cause of acne.  Different patients will have different sensitivities to these changes in male hormone so measuring the levels of these male hormones in blood tests is not predictive of how severe the skin changes will be.  Patients also have different abilities to convert the male hormone which is present in blood into more active forms of male hormone which affect the skin and hair follicles of the skin.

Some patients with polycystic ovaries symptoms will have their hair follicles activated by these increased male hormone levels and begin to develop excessive hair growth which is called hirsutism.  This may occur particularly on the upper lip, chest, stomach and legs and arms. It may also be accompanied by a more coarse hair growth rather than the normal fine female hairs.

The last point is obesity will be present in many patients with PCOS (50%).  However many patients whose ovaries function in a PCOS way can be quite thin.  Obesity can become self-perpetuating with PCOS in that the abnormal hormone levels being produced by the ovary can predispose to obesity.  As explained above, once the fat tissue is laid down it then starts to produce female hormone which increases the level of disorganization in the body's environment which can lead to further obesity.  Good weight control and dieting is an effective method of treating PCOS.

As for conclusion, the polycystic ovaries symptoms can vary from woman to woman. Not all women who suffered polycystic ovaries syndrome will experience irregular frequent bleeding, acne and abnormal hair growth and obesity but you must alert with all the symptoms. Natural treatment is the best choice.
